  1. My answer is sort of "all of the above" I play the games through normally the first time. (Tend to skip generations, I don't go all out on the franchise) My endless project is to create a full dex of competitively groomed mons to create a battle roster to use with friends. Don't do much online battling. Do shiny hunting and focus on training for those I like.
  2. My gaming spirit oscillates so rapidly that I couldn't really pin one down. Okami, Animal Crossing, Windwaker, Mario Sunshine are my nostalgia picks.
  3. Right. Our very particular demographic of online introverts happily do not hold much sway over such an important topic. Also, whatever distaste might be had for the effect of marketing incentives on the show at times, they at least will always keep the pinkest one of the mane 6 celebrated to some degree
  4. By the most recent seasons, I guess it's Twilight. Feel she's lost a lot of definition as a character, and on top of that isn't really given a lot of opportunity anymore to excel at things which I would call her previous defining traits. She lost the student role and didn't really do much to make up for that. For me, it's like she fell down a staircase of plot devices, each progressively less competently used to maintain a focused character
  5. Haven't looked at any of the leaks, but not super interested in a new direction informed by anyone who thinks AJ needs a complete overhaul, as I'm gleaning from comments. Also I've had my fill of teen centered drama for a life time. I think it's probably a good marketing move, but chances are I'm going to be fine parting on the current terms of the show. Nine seasons should be sufficient for anything I think is bound to happen for the current characters, really. Even if there's a 10th season I probably wont even show up for it by the time it lurches along. It's been a long ride.
  6. "Actually" Very little good follows an "actually' on the internet. It's a dang pervasive parlance though and I have to actively stop myself from similar phrasing sometimes. Good sign to reflect on whether you really need to comment on anything
  7. Got introduced to Warframe by a friend and now I've missed two weeks of being on social media and it feels like a year of calmness has passed between then and now. Being hooked into online communities so much really destroys your ability to rest your mind.

  8. I guess fantasy "aliens" like moon sprites, star dwelling creatures in other phenomenon would fit right in with the rest of the celestial magic
  9. Still been watching the old Ducktales series off and on for reference fun. A decent bit of background entertainment while I breed Pokemon. Surprisingly, more pop culture heavy than a lot of modern shows. They had a whole Star Trek parody episode and regularly throw in little catch phrases of other things. Anyways, watched an episode with a rogue robot called Armstrong and remembering there were several of those I had to check back at Gyro's list of evil robots in the new series: Oh dear, I thought Robotica was supposed to have had a good ending in the old series. The visual joke game is so strong.
  10. I want to pet that crab so bad The not-actually-a-squid vampire squid is another favorite of mine with its flappy sack propulsion and the general uniqueness of its anatomy. Lotta cool cephalapods, but this one's the flappiest of em all. Much like your average twenty something irony poster, It flips itself inside out when threatened to pretend to be spiky.
  11. Thinking about penguin mouths a lot. Post your favorite interesting/weird animal things please
  12. Hm, I guess there must be a tradition of rhythmic gymnastics in the West out of sheer likelihood, but it does seem to be more prominently tied to acrobatics and martial arts traditions where those are popular.
  13. I've done this a couple times replaying games to get more legendaries and trading a level 1 themed team in. Eeveelution team is a fun one.
  14. One Punch Man is too good. I can't enjoy any other action series anymore. Life imitating art

  15. I have a nostalgic fondness for Colorado because a couple of times during my childhood my family loaded up on a car trip and drove up there from Texas. Camping out in worrisome motels, stopping for picnics, getting tremendously car sick, and seeing snow for the first time in my life is what I know Colorado for. We rented skis. I got lost on the slopes for an entire day and they had to send out search parties for me. it was a good time.
  16. I had an egg toast sandwich. By which I mean I was trying to make an egg in a nest but the bread stuck and tore in half so I made another egg and a sausage with it and stuck everything between two more pieces of toast. (Sprinkle of tarragon and basil. I like tarragon)
  17. Houston, Texas I'd propose we're most famous for our godawful city planning and horrendous traffic situation
  18. There aren't a lot of first generation immigrants whatsoever who take strongly anti-American views. Most are apolitical, keep their heads down, and try to work to be allowed to exist. Subsequent generations are more vocally upset at being treated as garbage throughout their lives by bigots in their country of birth or upbringing. I wonder why. Big mystery that living with shitty assholes growing up disillusions you. Protesting ill treatment isn't anti-Americanism though. It's part of trying to improve the society you live in.
  19. I haven't finished listening yet but I love the idea also this is like blowing a month's salary on horse races without realizing you're a gambling addict
  20. Hot coco with pepper What is your favorite kind of weather?
  21. Going to go with Mistmane at the present time. I think the nature of her sacrifice in her story is a very strong tie in to the element of generosity it became. Meadowbrook very close behind for me. i like them all by design, but I do think Sonambula's character was a little thin. Not really much to go from her tale.
  22. Not sure about the specific idea of bringing back dragon greed, but I could see Starlight as a useful confidant for Spike in determining a personal goal for himself which is not entirely derived from his support for the ponies. She has that gumption to spare for others.
  23. Not really a specific individual, but I've spent a fair amount of time mixing it up with the gamergate/kek drips and they're as soulless and morally lacking a bunch as you can find. A large set of them basically spend all their time trying to dig into people's past and personal lives for dirt, but regardless of whether they find anything they tend to try to smear their targets with mocked-up screen grabs. Individually they're pretty dumb people overall and you can't really distinguish one from the other, but they rely on overwhelming through sheer annoyance. Some general advice on persistent internet jerks: mute/ignore functions are usually more effective than blocking if you're trying to get out of their harassment loop. They tend to wear themselves out shouting at nothing before they figure out what's going on.
  24. With my fists What is your favorite cartilaginous fish?
